i'm a bit reluctant now to do more huge blockbuster books like vietnam or catastrophe. instead i'm trying to look at specific episodes which one can talk about why those things and i had never written a whole book about royal navy which i think was britain's most effective fighting force of world war ii just as the u.s. navy was americans most effective fighting force and i locked onto operation pedestal and in 1942, close to starvation and the british attempted to run several convoys to the island and failed. the germans and italians had more than 600 aircraft all over mediterranean. they got italian service fleet and looked pretty desperate and if they couldn't get supplies to malta by september, 300,000 population could no longer be fed. the island would have to be surrendered. some people, the top of navy and british foreign forces, that's the way it's going to be, that's the way it's going to be. the malta in the grand scheme of things didn't matter that much. a lot of people thought russians were going to be defeated. they thought while malta goes, we lost a lot o

caller: same thing with vietnam. we had vietnam in the same situation. with vietnam, we run out of there, we left things, same thing did over there. we always about in. we leave equipment. we leave people. we leave the country destitute and broke. so it's no different from then and now. they forget about the vietnam war and what happened. it's no different than it is in this war. host: thomas in north carolina. florida, republican, good morning, you're next. caller: i would like to discuss our american bar association and the fact that we have so many lawyers in our government, and then they employ 80,000 lawyers themselves. host: help me understand how that gets to america's biggest foreign policy challenge t. caller: well, the fact that, how can we run our country when our judicial system is so corrupt? host: we're focusing on american's top foreign policy challenge, we only have a few minutes left in this segment to do that and plenty of callers who want to talk about that subject. republicans, 202-748-8001. democrats, 202-748-8000. independents, 202-

he left vietnam after the offensive started. his time in the marine corps dramatically affected his life. on behalf of the fifth district of south carolina, i want to thank marine colonel john killon for his service. he's created a lasting legacy of honor, legacy and courage. may god continue to bless john and his great family. i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentleman from florida seek recognition? >> i ask unanimous consent to address the house for one minute and to revise and extend my remarks. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, the gentleman is recognized for one minute. mr. bilirakis: thank you, mr. speaker. i rise today because i refuse to stand by and watch as america's ability to ensure the safe and efficient movement of goods, people, and services throughout our transportation network continues to be diluted. our priority focus right now should be strengthening our nation's economy and increasing our global competitiveness. the policy of this -- policies of this president, the d

we may have to work with vietnam. then what happens if chinaha threatens us? the idea to put a finer point on this if we can develop a military strategy that allows us to bring those countries for it we don't have to do crazier things later that will be more cost to us. >> one of the central themes in your book and you talk about it to the point where you must have gotten tired of writing about the anti-hegemonic coalition and he suggested it is perhaps the key to defeating the chinese. can you talklk about the dynamis and how we manage such an anti-hegemonic coalition? >> is basically idea that china is too strong for us to bounce a loner any individually in china. if you use metrics economic size meant nothing. china will be them around. it are interests are in our ability to project power. the question is what does that look like? i don't have a fix to view of what it will look like and to be clear don't think weeg need it nato. nation nato may be counterproductive because it may involve too much commitment so this is o something looser that i'm talking abo

in my second tour in vietnam it was in the early 70s and my battalion commander was paul gorman and so he said come see ndme he said you're not going ta brigade, you're going back to the battalion and that's where you're going. so i hadn't slept in the 48 hours. i get out there and walk the line and let me just tell you something when i am pulling the soldiers out of foxholes wreaking with marijuana, that's not just a soldiers problem, it's aie leadership problem and that's what happened. it was overrun because a lot of americans and so i say that you can't get sucked into you walk the line and follow what's happening and take action. so i did that, we got squared there are some stories aboutbo the platoon with one blk squad and one white squad i gave a fire mission. they were doing the right thing and a month later they had the mortar coming out and it worked extremelyin well. there is more in the book besides that, but that was a major teaching point. i then after that went to the university to get a masters degree and teach something called option c to make a more academicof focused

after the united states attacked vietnam was main force troops. i found that there were already people fellow students who were learning about the war and, and educating others. and trying to build an anti war movement. many of them were red diaper babies. that probably does ring a bell for you. red diaper babies. no. yeah. does we pair the sons and daughters of members of the old communist party or socialists who tended to be called think they were babies or labor people? and i think to some extent, as yourself, as, as a son of, of a liberal clergyman who was himself a antiwar. would you say you qualify? there's a red diaper, baby of sorts. yeah, i mean, the religious left is a little different. but yes, i mean, clearly that experience when my father, i was a boy would take me to anti war demonstrations. my father was also like a lot of the clergy, of his generation had been in the war and been in combat. and, and there was a huge percentage, i'm not sure how much the secular, any war movement was aware of it, but a huge percentage of that clergy

danny: there is a huge tech focus in vietnam right now. a lot of real tail -- a lot of retail solutions using analytics. you have a lot of companies that are now building ai capabilities to understand consumers and have personalized use cases. so -- [indiscernible] that will be a key area of focus the next couple years. we're focused on how we work with startup technology companies so we can bring their offerings to millions of consumers. >> what further growth are you looking at? are you looking for more mergers and acquisitions? would you be looking at becoming a super app as well? danny: we have always had a two pronged strategy, organic and inorganic. you can look to build and acquire companies that fit our consumer ecosystem. our mission is to build off -- similar to what you see in india and china. that is our endgame. >> finally, your overview of what asean looks like in 10 to 15 years. danny: it will be i think a hotbed of technology companies, growth companies. i expect a lot of companies within vietnam or taiwan or indonesia to b

there are some vietnam books -- let's focus on vietnam -- what do you think of the things that are carried in fiction by tim o'brien. >> i would absolutely say that is as good as any. and obviously you can't go anywhere without reading. i think that [inaudible] >> really. >> it is just fantastic. you can't be a writer of nonfiction and not. that book is just one for the ages. >> i am not so sure. there are very few writers. especially nonfiction writers and so this is a name that we know even after his tragic death. he had a place in the life of ideas, the conversation and i think we would agree that you are like that as well. what you come out with is important and it gets people talking about and gets dads to bring books to the dining room table and say did you know -- so we thank you for your great contribution and for this terrific book. i hope everybody gets a copy of it. thank you for hosting. if you want a last word, it's yours. >> i need to point out i don't think my brother has read any of my books but he has read all of your books. one of the things we've learned here is who was

what happens if china threatens vietnam? the idea to put a finer point on it is if we can develop a military strategy to allow us to defend those countries we don't have to do crazier things later there will be more costly for us. >> excellent. one of the central themes in your book and you talk about it to the point where you must have gotten tired of writing about the anti-hegemonic coalition he suggested is perhaps the key to defeating the chinese but can you talk about the dynamics andn how we manage anti-hegemonic coalition? >> yeah. it's basically the idea that china is too strong for us to bounce alone or anybody in the nation. china's half of the total power of asia using conventional metrics like economic size in that kind of thing so standing alone would say japan stand up to china, china will beat them around. so we need countries toat work together but it question is what does that look like? i have to don't have the fixed view of what it will look like. to be clear don't think we necessarily need a nato. a natio

in fact, when i went through my second term of vietnam, he was while nobody wanted to be the last person killed in vietnam, it wasas in the early 70s, and my battalion commander, was all he was the gate commander and so i got the plane and he said come and see me so he said you're not going to brigade is are you, you're going to go through the battalion, and that is where you are going. i got out there and i had not slept for 48 hours and i walk the line and let me tell you something, honey and pulling soldiers on the foxholes, that are reeking with marijuana, wanted to quantify the, is roughly shut because i'm not cleaned the gun, it's a leadership problem and it was overrun with a lot of americans and so i say that because you cannot get into well you know, just pull them out, you walk the line and you smell what is happening and you take corrective action. that squared away and the platoon and the same unit and i said, one black squad, one white squad and so i gave them a mission. they did not know what they were doing and he said you at 5:00 o'clock, and they were doing the right thi

oh, jim, in the city in vietnam, once i go the old capital of south vietnam at its heart, islam, sonya square, where journalists diplomats, military staff and spies rub shoulders in its famous hotels during the vietnam war . and i was assigned to vietnam by the associated press and i arrived queued at 962. the caravel hotel burst under the headlines in november, 1963 when those of number to recruit a tower which led to the assassination of president problem. and over 24 hour period, the center of shai gone, was a war zone. the press retreated in effect of the car val hotel and many of the story is mentioned what we were saying was from the caravel. ah, hello. this is al jazeera ah, hello, i'm emily. ang, when this is the news, our live from doha. coming up in the next 60 minutes, we see what happens. oh, more for it. and johnson ami cron throws travel plans into disarray, rising cases of the burying force of thousands of flight cancellations world wives . a commission in the gabby calls for former president, ga jamie to be prosecuted for crimes against humanity.

then we had korea come along, then vietnam, i mean, in vietnam when they came home, people almost spat on them. i have heard it said. people would start to ignore them and never treated them right. we are now, finally getting there. it is just news. that had to be the great generation, too. with all they put up at home and in vietnam. some 50,000 casualties. now it is the iraqi and afghanistan soldiers we worry about. >> quickly go to walter reed and other hospitals and talked to soldiers. some terribly wounded. described at the beginning of the book. a young man who died four days, you talk to them. what you say to them and their families? sen. dole: it is one thing when you have a disability. you have a little credibility and you can just walk up and say, how are you doing? where did this happen and how long? i always wonder how long it took for them to get to walter reed hospital in washington. they can be there within three days if everything works right. they get the best medical care they can possibly get. >> or you just to get an evacuation to the hospital it was nine hours? sen

they would also not permit me 10 and a half years to do the vietnam. they would one in a couple of years. and the kind of corners that would be cut was nothing i wanted to do. i also was aware even with the success of the civil war series, people would come and ask me what i was working on from other places. when i would say baseball, they would say, great, that will sell. they would say, how long is it? i would say 18 and a half hours. they would walk away. after baseball had an even bigger audience, they would say, what are you doing? i would say jazz. they would go come along --go long? they would say, african-american stuff does not sell. you suddenly realize sometimes you had to pick these projects, all of them, based on your gut and not on a focus group, not on some marketing panel, but what you wanted to do. david: how many projects do you have in the works now? can you say what some of the ones are? ken: i don't know why people make this stuff secret. i just locked or finished, we are about to next week mix the first of two episodes on a four p

vietnam, we didn't learn from that. and after it was done, we totally forgot everything, and we eliminated a lot of the capabilities we had built for usaid, dod, state, just eliminate them because we're never going do it again. we did it in afghanistan. we did it in iraq. and there are four or five countries in -- and i'm not saying we shouldn't do it. but we're starting that slippery slope again. and that is the one thing we -- one of the lessons learned about this type of effort is, it starts small and it grows. and it starts like a roller coaster going down. and the next thing you know we'll be pumping more troops and more money in there. so no, we don't learn lessons too well in the united states. we should. because otherwise we're gonna spend another trillion dollars and have a horrible result. on the classification? all i can tell you again, i've been here maybe as long as you have. since 1982. i've been dealing with classified information since 178 and i've learned one thing and i'm take it to my grade. and that

and i have also talked to people in vietnam, and they talked about how vietnam was pretty similar in the reporting process. there was a thing that they said about reporting from the bottom to the top, they called it the reverse filtration loop. the higher the reporting, the more full of crap the story became. so i wonder, have we learned anything from these three wars, which are very similar in an awful lot of ways? and we keep getting into them, too, so it suggests we don't, but what have we learned from this? because it seems like the government works every time in the same way. what they're doing to you by classifying information or marking it sensitive, it's a bit much, but it's how we seem to do things in this country, isn't it? >> i believe you're right. that is basically the underlying point of that lessons learned report that came out. you know, basically, we don't -- not only on the classification, but just on doing it. i mean, you know, everybody will tell you we're never going to do this again. we have done it three times in the last 50 years. vietnam, we didn't learn from

japan is it willing to stand up and we have to go to vietnam. so than the idea to put a final point on it with the military strategy and we don'tie have to do crazier things later. >> one of the central themes in the book is the anti- hegemonic coalition. so talk about the dynamics. >> it's basically the idea china is too strong. and using very conventional metrics so standing alone. so we come together so the question is what does that look like? i don't have a fixed view but to be clear for that to be counterproductive so that anti- hegemonic coalition.

they would also not permit me 10 and a half years to do the vietnam. they would want it in a couple of years. the kind of corners that would be cut in that process was nothing i wanted to do. i also was aware even with the success of the civil war series, people would come and ask me what i was working on from other places. and then what i would say baseball, they would say, great, that will sell. you know? and then they would say, how long is it? and i would say, 18 and a half hours. they would walk away. after baseball had an even bigger audience than the civil war, they would come and say what are you doing? , i would say jazz. they would say, african-american stuff does not sell. you just suddenly realize that sometimes you had to pick these projects, all of them, based on your gut not on a focus group, not on some marketing panel, but what you wanted to do. david: how many projects do you have in the works now? can you say what some of the ones are? ken: yeah. you know, i don't know why people make this stuff secret. i just locked or finished, we

guy: our company, like many others, had a heavy reliance on vietnam, or merely because vietnam had a terrific labor force, high-quality labor operators, and the government of vietnam had done a terrific job of negotiating with various vendor countries, including the u.s., russia, canada, etc., on favorable duty rates. it was a naturally good place to go to get merchandise made that is high-quality. i think what we have learned is you should have some sort of variation in your sourcing base, which we have, and that has been a learning for us. i would say that the constraints around the logistics area that we have all talked about have been much more pronounced in the u.s. than they have been in other parts of the world. alix: i am assuming you are talking about things like labor and i am wondering, what is your biggest inflationary headache and how do you see that evolving? is it permanent or does it revert back? tim: the biggest impact for us has been the logistics issues, getting merchandise from asia to the u.s.. we ship merchandise all over the world from asia and by far the bigge

it was my introduction to the vietnam war. and that night, henri took the first shift for three hours and then it was my turn. he gave us an m-2 grease gun, a.45 caliber sub machine gun. and my turn, i'm out there, i'm scared to death. i'm in this bunker with a slit that looks out right at the road. during my shift, the enemy attacked the south vietnamese compound, commanders compound across the little road. they hit it with satchel charges blowing it up, and i'm figuring we're next, and finally after the longest night of my life there is a little light in the east, the sun is coming up in a minute, and i made it. and i look and down that road comes a vietnamese guy on a bicycle with a big package on the front on his handlebars. and i have checked a round on that machine gun and i have it on him and i'm about to blow his gizzard out when the captain hits me on the shoulder and says son, if you shoot that man you'll have to cook our breakfast. he was the cook. and our breakfast was on his handlebars. i tell you, you can't make
